More about Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation

Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation is based on the light novel series by Rifujin na Magonote. It has sold over seven million copies and is considered one of the pioneers of the isekai genre.

The synopsis of season 1, as depicted by MyAnimeList, reads:

"Despite being bullied, scorned, and oppressed all of his life, a 34-year-old shut-in still found the resolve to attempt something heroic—only for it to end in a tragic accident. But in a twist of fate, he awakens in another world as Rudeus Greyrat, starting life again as a baby born to two loving parents."

It further states:

"Preserving his memories and knowledge from his previous life, Rudeus quickly adapts to his new environment. With the mind of a grown adult, he starts to display magical talent that exceeds all expectations, honing his skill with the help of a mage named Roxy Migurdia. Rudeus learns swordplay from his father, Paul, and meets Sylphiette, a girl his age who quickly becomes his closest friend."

Additionally, Netflix added season 1 of the series to its vast catalog. It may also include Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation season 2 in the future.
